Michael Schumacher, F1 race winner extraordinaire.
First he's got to finish winning races, then someone can try to match what he's done did.
However, he's no way anywhere near as good as Ayrton Senna might have been...
Originally posted by GalaxyShieldTame? To toss out an incoherant attempt at an insult for no concievable reason is tame? No, it's merely rude, I was being polite in merely pointing out his rudeness as opposed to returning rudeness upon rudeness.
Actually that was pretty tame of him. Consider yourself almost lucky.
As an addenum: If he had pointed out an item or posted something that made sense with regard to my post which he quoted then perhaps there might be some reconning to be had. As is, he's just being silly, capability to say anything of consequence would seem beyond his abilities in the current case.
Originally posted by NoontidalYes, his amount of rudeness as you call it was tame in this case. It could have been far worse. If you were getting blasted by Xanthos or no1 then there wouldn't be to much left of you to talk about. I don't mean to be rude but this is how things work around here. People being rude/insulting each other, all kinds of funny stuff like that. You have to build up some resistance to it but once you do you'll realize just how funny some of this stuff is.

Originally posted by GalaxyShieldHehehe, I've read through a notable contingiency of posts prior to posting at all. I'm well aware of those of whom you speak, while certainly board seniority provides certain priviledges and alligiences including the Mod Squad backing, it also makes you overrate so-called 'blasts'. I also understand that my current(temporary) status as a non-sub also earns a level of distain.

Now a proper 'blast' of my previous post would have been perhaps one which invoked certain religious or Sci-Fi elements in order to combat my claim that no planet will ever have more people (as in humans) than Earth.
To the part crediting Vikings as the coolest civilization 'ever', being a subjective viewpoint it isn't really combatible with easy refutation, though I could have a great number of reasons for my personal preferance. Not the least of these preferences includes ship technology that was not matched by the rest of the world until the industrial revolution. Perhaps one could offer various claims of butchery and barbarism, though most of these are fairly easily compatible via modern archeology and base comparisons of the cultures around at the time.
On the part about ninjas? It's wholy subjective, a thesis on how 'money' is the root of evil would be quickly slapped down by a review of the quotation in question. "The love of money is the root of all evil", so we discover therefore that it is in fact the love fixated upon money, not the money itself, ergo rich people are not by their very richness necessarily the most evil people in the world. Granted, it does seem to increase the likelihood that they will in fact be such. Nontheless, I still claim ninjas as inherently the most evil.
